On Saturday, a group of alt-right demonstrators gathered in Charlottesville, Virginia to protest the removal of a statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee, but leftist agitators showed up and caused a riot to break out, leaving one dead.

Videos have emerged showing the shocking moment a gray Dodge Charger plowed through a crowd of Antifa goons, killing one and injuring 20 others. While most show just one side of the vehicle, a new video shows a different angle, and suggests that the driver may have been fleeing for safety after his car was attacked by violent leftists.

Many eyewitnesses have stated that violence didn’t break out at the rally until leftists on buses showed up in full battle gear and provoked the alt-right protesters. Such has been the case at numerous other conservative gatherings as well, including President Trump’s inauguration and the GOP Convention last year.

Witnesses have also stated that Antifa thugs were resorting to gang violence against people, including those in their vehicles trying to get through the streets, which were blocked by the leftist agitators. Antifa has been promising to ramp up its violence against conservatives, and it appears as if they did exactly that yesterday.

While we condemn in the strongest terms possible violence of any type, especially at a political event, we also need to understand what motivated the driver of the car who killed a person yesterday, James Alex Fields, Jr., a 20-year-old from Ohio.

Below are pictures and video that may shed some light on the tragic situation.

As you can see in the video, Fields’s vehicle was violently attacked by the Antifa thugs using bats and other objects.

So the question is, was this really a crazed lunatic looking to kill people, or was it a scared kid hundreds of miles away from home trying to run for his life?

Hopefully, the police will do an objective investigation and come to an honest conclusion. Because if he was being attacked and trying to get away, it would be incredibly unfair to make an example out of him.
